July 4th

We went to Aunt Michelle's house for July 4th this year and had a blast. Utah has legalized fireworks that  go up to 25 ft so Jared's cousin Trevor bought a few fun big fireworks and a bunch of little ground fireworks as well for the kids to watch. It was nice to stay at home and still get to see fireworks, a lot less stressful than trying to take the kids somewhere. Everyone in the neighborhood was setting them off so we ending up seeing a lot. Lucy was a trooper and loved it all, until the very last one when Jared's cousin screamed and scared her, poor girl. Timmy would be in more of the pictures but he had already gone to bed. Poor kid, he was so tired from playing with all the kids. 







Lucy loves sparklers and is really good about holding them carefully :)

 



She also was really good at putting them in the water when she was done. Sometimes when she wasn't done, too . . . :)








This is from a block party a few weeks ago. Lucy and her friend, Mary, decided they needed to run across this huge field. Once I caught up with them, they explained to me that they were going to see the dragons that lived in the woods.

 


super cute, except for the whole running really far away from the party part :)







because I have no pictures of Timmy in this post, here is the picture Jared sent me at work when he cut Timmy's hair. He was crying because the clippers scared him. Poor kid!
